Wordpress "Related Image" plugin?

[Supergeek]

Ok so I've got WP-O-Matic installed, and I would really like it if I could somehow pull related images from Google or Flickr automatically if there are no images in the actual article.

I think Digg does the same thing, doesn't it? I read Digg via an RSS reader and they have some kind of "related image" for every post now, and it's obvious it's some kind of keyword or tag-related image.

I imagine it would be pretty simple; when you go to post an article without a related image --

1. Pull keywords from post
2. Find first Google/Flickr result for those keywords
3. Cache image locally
4. Attach image to post

Does something like this exist already? I've done a lot of fruitless Googling.

If nothing like this exists, I can write a plugin to do it, I just want to save myself the time if possible.

Thanks.

This doesn't do exactly what you want, it requires user intervention.

Download the Photo Dropper Flickr Wordpress Plugin

It searches for Creative Commons licensed photos – images that are licensed for shared use – and lets you drop them into your posts – right from your dashboard with just 1 click.

I offer it up as a base to hack into to get what you need.

Perfect! Thanks man. +rep

Edit: Well, I tried to give you rep and it said I have to spread rep around first.
